PS i have a 3D printed helmet of the Biker Scout. Ive not built it yet. I spent a lot of money for it and the the XTC- 3D coating ive never used before and afraid to. What did you use to cover the whole helmet? I noticed you used car putty to fill seem lines. I tried sending a part but find it's tough to do so. I had no idea about this before i bought it. I also have two weapons E-11 Blaster and the DLT-19 Rifle Blaster. I'm in the same predicament with those and the seller i bought these from has vanished from eBay. On another note thats an excellent job on that Scout helmet.👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️

Thank you! I’ve never personally used any kind of 3D print coating, but for a few of the helmets I got on well using spray filler primer. It’s basically a thick layer of spray paint that is a bit chalky and sandable to get rid of print lines. It gives a good coat to spray paint onto aswell. But it won’t fill large gaps like joint lines unfortunately.

@@J.watkins_01 thanks for that. Yes when I bought the helmet I didn't know I had to spend extra AU $100.00 for this resin like coating. Apparently it makes the sanding easier and gives smooth finish. It's a two part you mix and pour on to a flat foil hand made tray that gives the XTC about 14 minutes before it dries up. I'll have to try and find that spray you used. I hope it's available here in Australia..👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️

Lucky you have a printer. I guess you can make almost anything you wish. What sort of plastic does it use? Im curious to know and price for printer and the rolls of plastic. I take it you have to have it connected to a computer? Unfortunately ive no idea about them only that they create wonderful items,👍🇭🇲🦘🐨✌️

I'm currently doing the same project and just got done printing all 8 pieces of the 'main' helmet. the two pieces on the lower back part of the print (one of them got the vertical indentations) seem to be kinda thin in some parts. The part that is closest to your neck for example, has such a thin outer layer that i'm scared to handle it. did you encounter the same issue and what print settings did u use?

Some of the smaller pieces I printed with as little as 15% infill to save filament, but you can pretty much print as dense as you want. Bear in mind that the print will be weaker, but you can make the walls of the print thicker to make it stronger aswell!

@printedpropscreations3017 3 жыл бұрын

power supply should be fine in the enclosure - the aim of the enclosure is to keep the print at a constant ambient, so put a thermometer in it just to check what that is, but it should all be fine and its probably not getting too hot in there - if your really worried about it you could hook it up to an arduino, so that it turns on some PC fans once it exceeds a certain temperature, or turns on heaters once it goes below a certain temperature.
